Temperature effects on the growth of microorganisms Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the effects that temperature has on three different organisms. Temperature is one of the most important environmental factors affecting growth and survival of microorganisms². The three organisms used where Escherichia coli‚ Pseudomonas fluorescens‚ and Bacillus stearothermophilis. Most bacteria grow within a particular temperature range. The minimum growth temperature is

CALIBRATION OF TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE SENSORS Mechanical Engineering Department Loyola Marymount University Los Angeles‚ California ABSTRACT In this laboratory experiment‚ an Omega Model PX- 236-060GV piezoresistive pressure transducer was calibrated‚ by using an AMTEK model deadweight pressure tester. For the temperature calibration an Jofra Model C-140 temperature calibrator was used. The experiment began by setting up the Jofra Model C-140 temperature calibrator‚ and taking data from

Divide the 10 test tubes into two groups and name them 1-5 in both groups. 5 different stopwatches are used to record the time for the disappearance of the blue-black color in test tubes‚ name them 1-5 also. Stopwatch 1 corresponds to test tube 1 in beaker 1 i.e. 0°C and the room temperature (that should be around 20-25°C)‚ and stopwatch 5 corresponds

Continental Temperature Ranges Introduction: There are large variations in average monthly temperatures among cities located at the same latitude. This suggests that factors besides the angle and duration of isolation affect the rate heating and cooling of any given location. Objective: You will graph the average monthly temperatures of costal and inland continental regions and interpret the range in temperatures. Vocabulary: Temperature range- Average daily temperature Average monthly
